Campus Life

Beyond the classroom, we want Ann Richards School (ARS) students to become lifelong leaders. That’s why we encourage our girls to participate in everything from sports and fine arts to afterschool programs and leadership groups. We know these activities develop well-rounded leaders and foster a sense of community and camaraderie.

ARS students are getting in the game! We offer six sports: volleyball, soccer, track and field, cross country, tennis and basketball so that our girls form exercise habits—and take part in competition, too.

The Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders (ARS) is a public, all-girls college preparatory school of choice founded to educate young women from diverse backgrounds, and serves grades 6 - 12 within the Austin Independent School District (AISD).

The Ann Richards School for Young Women Leaders dedicates itself to prepare young women to attend and graduate from college, commit to a healthy and well-balanced lifestyle, lead with courage and compassion, and solve problems creatively and ethically in support of our global community.
